Jazz Dancing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Dania, FL

As a theatre professional I have mentored many performers going into the profession and facilitated different outreach programs for children and adults. I am currently in Florida after many years in New York and I am looking to set my own work hours and would like to be considered as a tutor in English. English was my minor in college and that coupled with my professional background, I feel that I would be an asset to your program. I have always been an achiever and very tenacious and I believe that anyone can overcome obstacles and that learning in the right environment is important. I am very professional, patient and kind and my goal is to teach children and adults to use their potential to the best of their abilities.

As a current college student, I have been tutoring since my freshman year (currently a rising senior), I started out at J.T Williams Middles school, where I tutored 5 students (in an after school program) which included English, Math, and helping the study for test. I also played a big part in the students personally mentoring them as well because I make everyone around me feel comfortable. My current degree I'm seeking is Health Education Ever semester I must complete 40 teaching hours. I have taught since my sophomore year sixth and seventh graders health. I have also volunteered in Project Challenge of Charlotte where I was a mentor also helped the students get the SAT/ACT prep courses that they needed, Also got some accepted in college. The only thing that I truly desire is for each Child to have the same Experience and Chances that I have. Teaching is a talent however; I teach accor

I have always been fascinated with language and how it is used. I dedicated myself to learning the details of the English language. I have extensive experience teaching all ages and all levels and students from all over the world from many varied cultures. I myself am a first generation American so I can relate to the difficulties of not only learning a foreign language but a foreign culture as well for the two cannot be separated from each other. I have been a language student, a language teacher and also a director of a language school. I also have a formal education and training in languages and teaching them. Also, I have a genuine interest in other cultures and languages as well. I believe that to be a great teacher you can never have just one style or method because we all assimilate knowledge in different ways. However, my teaching philosophy is to teach so students learn but

As a believer that students are enabled to advance themselves when properly instructed, guided, motivated and inspired. I have enjoyed the pleasure of impartation in several subject areas including music (vocal and instrumental) English (for foreign students especially as I served in the American Peace Corps as a Biology , English and Physical Education Teacher), Typing/Wordprocessing and Communication. I have at one time or another enjoyed the full spectrum of students, from Pre-K, to Higher Education as well as Adult Education. I have the special talent of being able to communicate based on the student's best learning mode. Teaching has been one of my natural talents as proven when I was in kindergarten. I was given the unique experience of teaching my classmates when we all were in kindergarten because at five I was already advanced and capable of doing so. At age 13 I began teac

I believe the keys to teaching any student, young or old, are patience and encouragement. I find that when I demonstrate a pleasant, usually fun, and encouraging environment for my students, they tend to thrive. There has not been a more fulfilling experience for me than to effectively teach a child something that they did not initially have the confidence to learn. My goal is to not only teach them the required material, but to also introduce a learning experience that positively impacts their self-perception. If they believe they can learn anything, they will ultimately thrive in other experiences that require self-confidence, patience, and leadership. The bottom line is that I love to teach, because very few experiences grant me this opportunity. During the course of my studies in Biomedical Engineering, I have gained extensive academic knowledge in Math, Biology, and Chemistry,

I am receptive and aware of the unique learning styles that are found within different children. I am patient in taking the time to discover each child's strengths and weaknesses in order to provide the best learning experience. I believe in the importance of identifying goals so that progress can be measured to improve future sessions. I enjoy using my creativity to engage children in learning that is fun and exciting. I feel it is important that the child be interested in learning and I will try different strategies to invite questions. My work experience has allowed me to work with children of all ages, abilities and personalities. My undergraduate degree in Social Sciences has equipped me with a broad range of perspectives for problem solving and communication. The psychology classes I have taken provided me with tools and information for understanding and working with others. My exp

An instructor, no matter how skilled, will never succeed at reaching a level of understanding with all of his or her students unless he or she is able to expound the lesson beyond the blackboard. Like a child who desires to color outside the rigid and creativity-stifled lines, so does the knowledge-hungry student search for a way to grasp and conceptualize ideas outside the standard perimeters of traditional learning. Teachers are now called to blow off the aged chalk from their routine boards and place focus on the specific needs of students, seeing each as an individual learner and not part of a generalized class. Lessons and concepts should be presented in a matter that brings them into a reality rather than an unclear abstraction. Having the extraordinary power to inspire and motivate students to excel, teachers must not hesitate to use their skill and creativity to explore a given l

I have a passion for education and have a great deal of experience working with youth and development. Academically I am versed and have tutored in an array of subjects some of which include, Psychology, Statistics, English, Geography, and History. Essentially, as a tutor I believe that an effective teaching style is achieved through structure and encouragement of the student. It is my unique mix of tangible experience, and my recently completed education that make me a strong tutor. I recently graduated from Florida A&M University with a degree in Psychology with minors in Political Science and Criminal Justice. At Florida A&M, I was an effective leader and participant in several campus and local community organizations geared towards effecutating progressive changes through education.

I believe that all children have different styles or method of learning. I will often give students a choice designing and implementing their own complex learning projects and will act in a consultative role. In many cases, I will also teach a the students with diagrams or other images associated to the particular lecture. I enjoy young students company and I do not get frustrated or irate easily. I am a very optimistic individual who can bring the best in people, whether its through education or personal. I have had some great tutors and teachers in the past and would like to thank them by helping others accomplish their educational dreams. Higher Education has always been my passion. I recently graduated college, in May 2009, with a Bachelor degree in Business Marketing. Although my degree focuses more on different aspects of business financial growth, my dedication to assist others th

I first began tutoring in high school subjects such as algebra, calculus, and geometry. During my undergraduate years, I tutored chemistry, math and biology. I have completed a BS degree and am currently pursuing an MSC in mental health counseling. I've worked with children for almost 10 years and in this time have encountered almost every type of learning style. It is my endeavor to present the information in the simplest, most understandable form, while increasing confidence.

I am an enthusiastic, energetic teacher who was just layed off from a 1st grade teaching position at a local charter school!!! Unfortunately, due to overcrowding and budget concerns for the state of FL, I am unable to find another full-time position. I am currently substitute teaching here in Broward County, but there are no benefits, no opportunities for advancement, and no promise that I will teach each day. I am looking to keep a strict work routine and have a job which I can depend on tobe there eachnew day I simply miss working with my students on a daily basis, making headway with them on difficult subjects and encouraging them to strive to succeed. Tutoring for your company would give me the opportunity to get back with students and truly watch them grow. I am never in my seat. I keep close proximity to my students at all times which is essential in classroom management. I am v

I have an easy going and nurturing teaching style. I believe that there is no one way to teach or touch a mind or heart. I believe in positive reinforcement and try to maintain a learning-rich environment. I am a "think outside of the box" sort of person. I know the tremendous impact my teachers had on me, and I want to share my passion for knowledge with as many students as I can. I grew up working with children, babysitting them and part-time teaching at a pre-school while I was in in high school. I was also a camp counselor in North Carolina for 6 years. I have been substituting in the public school system this year and it has been wonderful. I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Florida Atlantic University and an ESOL endorsement.

As I continue to learn about better ways to execute a lesson, my teaching style changes. It is a hands-on approach. Teaching requires me to research the student, figure out which way he/she learns best and then implement a combination of tactile and written lessons that will help the student comprehend the situation. I believe that all students deserve an excellent education. Every student does not learn the same way, but every student can reach significant gains. I am a graduate of Brandeis University in Waltham, MA with a bachelor degree in sociology and a minor in Latin American Studies and a legal studies program. I worked at an organization called Sista II Sista where I was responsible for answering questions and explaining assignments. I taught for two years as a sixth grade English teacher at Fannie C.
